Sleep Apnea Patients Only Please..........?!


Question:

Sleep Apnea Patients Only Please..........?

I need some advice one a great CPAP mask; nose mask only, no full face mask. I have been using the mirage nasal pillows and now I have a mask that covers my nose and goes up between my eyes and rests in my forehead. It isn't very comfortable and it makes it hard for me to go to sleep at night. Any suggestions on a better mask will be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.


Answers:

there are different models to choose from so it's best for you to try them on to see what fits best and is most comfortable for you. i use the nose mask with a chin strap. the chin strap prevents my mouth from opening up at night and sounding like a vacuum cleaner. i can't say any of them are really comfortable. Let's be honest - who would be comfortable sleeping with any sort of mask on their face? It's really all a matter of getting used to it. i hated my CPAP machine and ended up ripping off the mask in the middle of the night. but if you give it some time, you'll end up getting used to it and find you can't sleep without it!
